Dr. Douglas J. Lisle, Ph.D.is the co-author of The Pleasure Trap available here:
www.amazon.com...
Dr. Doug Lisle is an evolutionary psychologist and co-author of The Pleasure Trap: Mastering the Hidden Force that Undermines Health and Happiness. He and his colleagues (Jennifer Howk and Richard Seidel) have developed a revolutionary method for approaching life challenges and improving self-confidence and self-esteem. They describe their approach as Esteem Dynamics - an approach with clinical insights derived from evolutionary psychology.
Central figures having major influence on the development of Esteem Dynamics include Richard Dawkins, John Tooby and Leda Cosmides, David Buss, Robert Trivers, Steven Pinker, and Geoffrey Miller. All of these individuals are considered world-leading theorists in evolutionary theory and human psychology. Somewhat surprisingly, insights from these trailblazers has yet to reach mainstream clinical psychology, and thus major advances stemming from some of the world’s greatest thinkers have yet to be systematically applied to problems of helping people improve their lives. Esteem Dynamics is the first such effort, and weds Dr. Lisle’s 30-years of clinical experience to the deep insights into human nature only recently available via evolutionary psychology.
Dr. Lisle received his undergraduate education from the University of California, San Diego. He completed his Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology at the University of Virginia, and was then appointed Lecturer in Psychology at Stanford University. His research and clinical interests include health and wellness, self-esteem, relationship satisfaction, the treatment of anxiety and depression, the genetics of individual differences, and optimizing achievement motivation. In addition to his work with Esteem Dynamics, Dr. Lisle lectures widely on health and wellness.

Unfortunately, the idea that you cannot overeat on whole plant foods is not entirely true. It is EASY for me to eat a HUGE meal of japanese sweet potatoes and steamed broccoli with nothing added. When I see peaches on the counter, stuffed as I am, I will eat multiples of them for dessert. And repeated consistently, up goes the body fat. Some of us who are not good at honoring hunger and fullness still have to fight the urge to overeat and still gain weight. It's been years since I have had any sort of processed things like cookies, chips, etc, and they are not at all appealing anymore. I just took those unhealthy habits and moved them to whole food (particularly fruit). While the effects may not be as dramatic, weight gain still happens if you eat more than your body needs, no matter what food it is.

[@junefreeman7955]

I agree with you.

[@CHEFAJ]

He didn't say you couldn't overeat he said you couldn't gain body fat. If you are adding any fat or salt to the food that's another story

[@jgrysiak6566]

If I salt my food, I gain weight, my body is sensitive to it. Dry flour products definitely take a hit on my weight @ 1500 calories a pound; gave up eating Cheerios & Shredded Wheat with my coffee & lost another 12 lbs. Eating anything 600 calories a pound or less & I'm losing or maintaining weight.

[@maryl2008]

I also find myself overeating on vegan foods. However, I've just started to learn to stop eating after 6pm. We should try to learn to stop eating when we are about 75% full; it is so much healthier. Let's all start to practice good habits.

[@verenamartini8695]

@@CHEFAJ I don't agree. My triglycerides level in my blood stream raise when I overeat carbohydrates without any fat or salt and then I gain body fat... We all have different metabolisms.

[@Utube254]

I have the utmost respect for Dr. Lisle, but the open loops/associations area is one that I totally disagree with him about. It is pretty clear that he has had a very blessed life and it is no wonder that he doesn't understand open loops/associations and how they can constantly pound on you and how your brain can make connections and associations to current situations where you have no idea what the connection is or why these traumas are being called up. I think that he does not appreciate how your brain can make much broader connections and associations than the specific traumas might seem to warrant and repeated traumas can make connections to more and more areas of your life and life experiences.

?????? similar grandparenting situation with daughter in law. Children love being with me though we are only allowed to be at home when I'm allowed them. Now its off again, because daughter in law got mad at me for allowing 5 year old to hang out in jammie at my house for 4 hours. Question is how do I make sure the 5, 9 and 1 year old know I love them and would have them over, pick them up from school as I did, if I were able, Im not deserting them or forgetting them and the plans we talked about (if I could come for a birthday, never invited, take them to a park...). I fear they will think I don't love them each time she pulls them from me for several weeks to a few months. Must be horrible on a childs psyche :(

Yes, that's what Dr. L. believes. He is wrong.

[@davidthomas-ot4cl]

So the question was is it ok to boredom eat healthy food. 10 minutes later he's still waffling about nothing to do with the question. I gave up. And you want 8 hours of this? No thanks.

[@sowmindful1501]

His answer was complex and deep, I’m sorry that you feel this way - I found his whole answer to be informative with key tips that I would not have otherwise known about.

[@noramaddock4165]

His answer was that it’s not really boredom eating, and that your body is smart, and it’s fine to eat whenever and however much you want, as long as it’s to the LOTRL

[@jgrysiak6566]

@Sow Mindful , I know, he rambles too much, I get bored listening to it. I have to pick out the answer out of the jibberish. He is a really smart man though.

I eat 15-20 pounds of potatoes a week. 5'7" 120 pounds.

Any additional flatus?

[@78cheerio]

Steamed potatoes? Any toppers like mustard?

[@kevinwilson3337]

You’re crazy

[@chelsea911]

That sounds about right, taking the median of 18lbs of potatoes per week is 6,372 calories, so 910 calories per day from potatoes, Your BMR + Activity burn for a male 5'7" 120lbs, assuming you exercise 1-3 times per week is about 1977 calories burnt per day, so potatoes make up just a bit under half of your daily diet to maintain your weight.

I definitely eat more when I'm home vs. when I'm out.

[@d.c.127]

Why are we assuming that the daughter and not the grandmother is the unpleasant one? We only have one side of the story, the grandmother's. To me it sounds like the mother wants to maintain a connection with the grandmother but is tentative and protective over her children and perhaps with very good reason. The grandmother calls her daughter passive aggressive but often that happens when it's impossible to be really direct and honest with someone. Dr. Lisle's answer was a good one and the grandmother who asked the question may want to take a longer and closer look at her own behavior and communication to figure out what's going on.

I'm an outlier. My stomach is HUUUUGE. Seriously, I can eat 12 pounds of potatoes in a single sitting. So, I indeed need to take that into account when I eat. I need to slow myself down if eating potatoes or beans or rice, because I can down 5000 calories if I'm not taking my time. But I'm a freak. lol

[@Mimulus2717]

I am somewhat of an outlier too....I got one of those genetic tests and it said for a genetic risk score using thousands of variants associated with obesity I scored in the 99% percentile. All my parents, grandparents, siblings were obese. I cannot eat wet carbs to satiety or I gain weight. Just to maintain my current weight (which is 40 pounds heavier than I should be) I must limit myself and feel hungry. And no way can I eat avocado, olives, nuts or seeds and expect to loose...I just gain.

[@noramaddock4165]

If I overeat the raw salads, I trend to a BMI of 20. But I'm more muscular than normal, which adds about 2 points to my BMI;)

It’s where he talked about the weight gain being from glycogen and not fat

[@kefirheals7383]

From my own personal experience, eating potatoes is kind of self-correcting. You can't really over eat them. It's similar to, if you had a basket of apples, and started eating apples - after X number of apples, your body would just tell you enough. When I eat potatoes, my eyes and brain thinks I can eat a lot of potatoes, but once I've eaten the amount of potatoes that satiates my body, I cannot even force myself to eat any more potatoes. In my mind, I'm thinking that no, you can't really overeat them because your body will tell you to stop.

I think when it comes to grandparents, sometimes they don't understand the ways they undermine the parents and they always think they know best. Feels like an unfair question given we don't know the perspective of the parent. My kids have a wonderful grandparent but there are a lot of ways grandparents think they're helpful and it's not. The subtle or not subtle undermining can get tiresome. And when time with a grandparent results in behavioral issues after a visit, it's not an incentive to allow the grandparents to "help" when it's not helpful.

[@elizabethheiland5632]

I totally agree. My mom tries to undermine what I ask her for my children all of the time. For instance, she was trying to get them to do chores for her and pay them a quarter. I don't see the point of that, she keeps prodding them to do it, do it. And my mom's vey coable to do it herself. So I told her they dont need to do chores, let them just play. So that made her mad she told me later in a fight. One year later, I just had a new baby and my mom starts slipping my daughter 5 dollars and making a big deal that it's for helping mommy. Then she keeps announcing my daughter Should get paid for helping. My daughter has been very helpful all on her own and I don't think it's right for my mom to steal her pride like that. It'd look like she's only helping because my mom's paying her. Now Ill have to bring it up to her again that I don't like that So I agree, it's the subtle undermining.
